Well, #FloridaAtlanticUniversity #FAU is no surprise.
Their newly selected-by-politicians President was c-level at #GEO, the prisons for hire company.
This grifter has no academic experience and was selected over qualified people to do exactly this work.
Wonderful podcast episode with @bdon of @protomaps fame 
This conversation is awesome to get a better understanding of #Maps, the #OpenStreetMap data, running an open source project, and how it all comes together in #Protomaps and #Maplibre

This year, #GEOgroup & Washington are back in court — for a third time — as the company tries to reverse the earlier decision that sided w/the state. #GEO has brought in contract cleaners at the Tacoma facility while the case plays out, keeping detainees there from *paid* work & from having a way to earn commissary money.
Die von der #agrarlobby gefeierte #würzburg|er Studie, wonach das Wetter für den starken #Insektenrückgang verantwortlich sei, ist jetzt definitv widerlegt worden. Sie hielt dem wissenschaftlichen Diskurs nicht stand und enthält u.a. auch methodische Fehler.
Sie versuchte die #KrefelderStudie bei der ein #Insektenschwund von bis zu 76% über 34 Jahre, vor allem durch #pestizide und künstliche #düngemittel festgestellt wurde, zu widerlegen. Ohne Erfolg!

Und hier der ganze #GEO-Artikel:
NatureEvidence from Tinshemet Cave in Israel suggests behavioural uniformity across Homo groups in the Levantine mid-Middle Palaeolithic circa 130,000–80,000 years ago - Nature Human BehaviourThe Middle Palaeolithic of southwest Asia witnessed interactions and knowledge sharing between archaic and modern humans ~130,000–80,000 years ago. These interactions led to increased behavioural complexity and consolidation of a uniform behavioural set across Homo groups in the region.

Die #Israelis und #Pälestinenser sollten sich ein Beispiel an unser aller Vorfahren nehmen:
"Neue Indizien sprechen dafür, dass sich Homo sapiens und Neandertaler vor gut 100.000 Jahren im heutigen Israel nicht nur den Lebensraum teilten, sondern viel, viel mehr"

Liebe #GEO / #GIS Menschen, ich suche einen klassischen Kataster-Nordpfeil so wie im Bild als SVG-Datei. Hat jemand so etwas in petto?
Vielen Dank!

>>He added that the company is expected to activate all of its idle facilities across the country by the end of the year to meet . . . mission of mass deportation of people in the United States without legal authorization. An idle facility means it’s currently unused, but it can be up and running within 60 to 90 days, Zoley said.<<

we geo people might all laugh at the renaming of “Gulf of Mexico” renaming stunt from USA…
But what happens when the USA decides it's done a deal with Russia re: Ukraine, and US maps must show a certain border of Ukraine/Russia … 
oh I would not want to have to deal with that…

The sinking of the liner "Le Liban" on June 7, 1903, one hour from the port of Marseille, was one of the greatest maritime disasters that the Phocaean city has ever known.
Today, the wreck of the 28-meter Lebanon lies at a depth of about 36 meters, the bow against the Farillons du large, the stern facing Tiboulen de Maïre. Well preserved, the wreck remains within reach of divers and the water is generally clear, as it is little stirred by the currents. There are multiple accesses, via the port of Cap Croisette, the port of Goudes or the port of Pointe Rouge. The wreck is home to abundant fauna and flora, placing this site among the most beautiful wreck dives in Provence.
How I took this photo: Isotta housing, GH5, 14 mm and 2 strobes Sea&Sea YS D1.

Le naufrage du paquebot « Le Liban » le 7 juin 1903 à une heure du port de Marseille fut l’une des plus grandes catastrophes maritimes qu’ait connues la cité phocéenne.
Aujourd’hui, l’épave du Liban de 28 mètres repose à 36 mètres environ de profondeur, la proue contre les Farillons du large, la poupe orientée vers Tiboulen de Maïre. Bien conservée, l’épave reste à la portée des plongeurs et l’eau y est généralement claire, car peu remuée par les courants. L’accès y est multiple, par le port du Cap Croisette, le port des Goudes ou encore le port de la Pointe Rouge. L’épave abrite une faune et flore abondantes, plaçant ce site parmi les plongées sur épaves les plus belles de Provence.
